Chapter 187

Walking to a deserted place, Xiao Qi opened the note.

There is one word written on it—wait.

He put away the note, raised his eyes to the distant sky, and saw a lone swallow struggling hard in the cold wind.

If there is no Shu Shen, he might be as helpless as it is now.

The man gave him a eaves and gave him a shelter from the rain.

But, spring is here.

There is already a place full of vitality in the desolate floating dust.

It's time for Gu Yan to return to the team.

The doctor invited by Xiao Qi checked Jing Liangtu's pulse, and prescribed medicine, and asked Xiao Qi to urge him to take the medicine.

Xiao Qi naturally nodded in agreement.

He kept what he said, and put the medicine bowl in front of Jing Liangtu, preparing to supervise him to take it.

This time he was more obedient, sitting up without much resistance, looking at the bowl of medicine indifferently, as if he had gotten used to it naturally.

In the past, there were ten thousand reluctances.

After all, Xiao Qi is an extremely serious person who doesn't know how to be reasonable. If Jing Liangtu doesn't want to take the medicine, he has countless ways to force him to drink it, and each method is more deadly than the other, making him learn one lesson after another.

Simply devil.

After getting along with each other for this period of time, Jing Liangtu has already deeply realized a truth——

Since you can't resist, then obey obediently.

A few pieces of candy were prepared on the table, wrapped in paper cloth, as a reward for later.

Obviously Xiao Qi's age is even younger, but he is like an older adult in this respect.

Jing Liangtu almost cried out for his father with teary eyes.

The spoon is already on the lips.

Jing Liangtu swallowed the medicine with a difficult expression.

Xiao Qi's gaze was downcast, and there were hidden emotions in his eyes, as if there were some emotions hidden.

If he didn't mention it, Jing Liangtu held back and didn't ask.

After a long time, Xiao Qi looked up at him with focused eyes: "If I leave in the future, will you blame me?"

Jing Liangtu stopped drinking the medicine for a moment, lowered his eyelashes, and silently drank the bitter medicine in the spoon.

It's just that from the beginning to the end, his expression didn't change at all, as if it wasn't surprising.

He said lightly: "It was originally picked up, and it will fly away sooner or later. There is nothing to blame for that."

Xiao Qi was silent for a while, then asked in a low voice: "Then will you miss me?"

Jing Liangtu raised his eyes to look at him, and smiled: "You call me brother, we have a relationship foundation, why wouldn't I want to?"

After all, we will still meet after separation.

And after meeting, they will look at each other with disgust.

It is estimated that at that time, you will still pray to see me less every day, so that you can feel more at ease.

It's just that this light "thinking" still easily pleases Xiao Qi.

His face looked much better.

He said softly, "I'll go out with you when you recover from illness."

Jing Liangtu was unwilling.

He grabbed Xiao Qi's hand and said: "I don't feel bad anymore, choosing a day is worse than hitting the day, let's go today."

After experiencing such a period of time, Jing Liangtu also understood that the world is impermanent.

Maybe when he recovered from his illness, Xiao Qi would return to his place.

So, can't wait.

Xiao Qi didn't understand why Shu Shen suddenly changed her mind, obviously she was lying on the bed not long ago and complained that she was extremely uncomfortable.

Just as he was about to refuse, he thought of the note his man had left for him.

He has no idea how long this "wait" will be.

It could be a year, a month, or... tomorrow.

Time seemed to speed up suddenly.

Because of this, he didn't refuse Jing Liangtu's invitation for a while, but was held by his hand, put on the bamboo hat and ran to the street.

There are people coming and going on the street, and it is very lively.

Jing Liangtu walked and watched all the way. Although he came here once before, his interest has never diminished.

He would buy a little of whatever he was interested in, and put it all in Xiao Qi's pocket and bosom after he bought it.

He still carried the wood carvings given to him by Jing Liangtu before, but now he has so many more things, including food and clothing, like a loving mother seeing off her son.

When they reached the next intersection, Jing Liangtu suddenly stood still.

Because he saw Ling Shuangzhu's family.

Ling Changxiu took his eldest son Ling Hongye to pick out gold and silver jewelry.

In the past, when the eldest son's biological mother celebrated her birthday, Ling Changxiu would take his son to the streets to choose gifts for his mother, and the family enjoyed themselves happily.

But this time, Ling You was also there.

He still had that fierce look, and when he stood there, the air seemed to freeze, and others didn't dare to breathe when they saw him.

In addition to choosing a birthday gift for his wife this time, Ling Changxiu also carefully prepared a gift with a crown for Ling Hongye.

It was a jade pendant made of high-quality Hetian jade, and a few words were engraved on it upright - a gentleman is like jade.

Ling Shuangzhu's father has always been indifferent to him, but he is very concerned about his eldest son, and will carefully prepare every gift for him, even the four treasures of the study in his room are prepared by him himself.

He knows how to be a good father.

It's just that he doesn't want to treat Ling Shuangzhu like this.

Ling You should have told Ling Changxiu about Ling Shuangzhu's falling off the cliff, but now he can still take care of his real family like a normal person, indifferent to Ling Shuangzhu's life and death, with a gentle smile on his face.

He never cared about the son of a concubine.

Jing Liangtu clenched his fists hidden in his sleeves, feeling a sense of depression in his heart.

He didn't want to lose his composure in front of Xiao Qi, nor did he want to expose his true identity. He closed his eyes and was about to turn around and leave when he saw Ling You pick up a precious saber from the shelf., like a burning fire.

"Shuangzhu is about to reach the crown, I can't favor one over another."

What he said was so solemn, Jing Liangtu's heart felt warm when he heard it, and the gloom that was originally stuffed in his chest disappeared in an instant.

Jing Liangtu smiled and turned his back, feeling much relieved.

If possible, he also wanted to throw himself into his arms to recognize him now.

Although this cousin looks very fierce, and he still has the blood that rolled from the battlefield, but his heart is extraordinarily soft. He is the only one in the Ling family who still cares about Ling Shuangzhu's safety.

When we meet each other, he must thank you dearly.

When he came back again, he found the old bustard sitting on the chair frowning, with a sad face, as if he was full of thoughts.

Jing Liangtu also thought that he was angry because he went out without authorization, and his heart was pounding, planning to sneak away from under his nose.

Before he had gone a few steps, the bustard called out to stop him.

Jing Liangtu swallowed, and looked at him with a guilty conscience.

Before the bustard could speak, he had already stood where he was punished, and actively admitted his mistake: "I was playful and sneaked away with Ajin. You can reduce the penalty for the sake of us coming back on my own initiative."

The old bustard was stunned: "So you just slipped out."

Jing Liangtu: "..."

It's over, it's too early to admit your mistake.

Fortunately, the bustard didn't blame him too much, but mentioned another matter to him: "Before, my people saw Eunuch Li Wei outside."

This Eunuch Wei is the chief eunuch and a member of the queen mother's party. From the perspective of camp division, he is on the opposite side of Xiao Qi.

Jing Liangtu's face darkened, and he couldn't help worrying about Xiao Qi's safety.

But since this matter is not good for Xiao Qi, why is it the old bustard who is sadly worried here.

He didn't know Xiao Qi's identity.

Before he could ask again, he saw Thirteen, who was standing aside, turned his back and wiped his tears secretly.

Jing Liangtu became more and more confused.

He was puzzled and said, "He comes all the time, can he still hinder our business?"

Thirteen wiped his eyes and explained: "Sir Shu, you don't know something. Although this Eunuch Wei has been cleansed, his interest in the bed matter has not diminished at all, but because of his incapacity, he put thisThe anger is vented on the people in the brothel."

The old bustard sighed and said: "After all, he spent money, and he can be said to be able to speak in the palace. We dare not disobey him. But because he is inhumane, we can only humiliate our people in other ways. Last year, There is a beauty under my hand who was disabled by him."

Hearing these words, Jing Liangtu felt his scalp go numb.

He was still worried about Xiao Qi's safety just now, but now it seems that the person who is most worth worrying about is himself.

Sure enough, Xiao Qi's complexion also changed suddenly.

He must have been very worried that Mr. Wei would find him.

Jing Liangtu is still very confident in his makeup skills, he has tried his best to transform Xiao Qi so that even his mother doesn't know him, presumably even Eunuch Wei can't detect his existence.

After returning to the room, Xiao Qi still had a solemn expression on his face.

Jing Liangtu knew what he was worrying about, it was nothing more than the fear that he would be found by those who hunted him down again.

In order to reassure him, he deliberately pretended to be okay.

Xiao Qi looked at him solemnly: "Are you not worried at all?"

Jing Liangtu said "Ah?" and asked him while pouring tea, "What are you worried about?"

Xiao Qi: "..."

His gaze fell heavily on Jing Liangtu: "As far as I know, this Eunuch Wei won't worry about the life and death of people in the brothel. Even if you refuse him because of heart disease, he won't care."

Jing Liangtu's hand pouring tea paused for a moment, then raised his eyebrows and glanced at him.

It turned out that he was worried about himself.

Jing Liangtu shook the tea in his cup, his eyes were clear.

"Ajin, since I live here, no matter what happens to me is my own fate. Although I brought you back, in fact, no matter what we become in the future or how capable we are, it is actually based on our ability."

He raised his head and drank the tea in the cup. Looking back, his eyes were mixed with a trace of complexity: "You don't have to worry about me, just go your own way with peace of mind."

In a word, they completely cut off their own safety and Xiao Qi's fate, and at the same time cut off their future fate.

A partner who doesn't drag you down is ideal.

This is also Xiao Qi's most satisfying working relationship.

At this juncture, it is the most appropriate way for him to leave Shu Shen alone and find a safer place to wait for his own rescue.

But when the person in front of him said these words to him, what he felt was not ease, but heaviness.

Perhaps, Shu Shen is not as out-of-shape as she appears on the surface.

It turned out that at some point, he had already thought about a lot by himself.

Xiao Qi said hoarsely: "You allow me to drag you down, but you don't allow yourself to drag me down, you..."

Why is it so hard to let go.

Jing Liangtu smiled: "I'm not a noble person, I just don't want to consume too much cost because of him alone."

After a while, he comforted Xiao Qi with a relaxed expression: "Don't worry, Mr. Wei may not find me. Even if he finds me, I am so smart that I will definitely have a way to escape from his hands. Besides, he is not humane.It doesn't even bother me."

Xiao Qi looked at him for a long time, and said seriously: "You don't understand, his methods of humiliating people are more tragic and excessive than you imagined, no less than any person with an intact body."

Hearing his terrifying tone, Jing Liangtu couldn't help but flinch a little: "What do you say, it's as if you know him."

Xiao Qi suddenly realized that he had revealed too much, he glanced away unnaturally, and murmured: "It's just a rumor."

actually not.

Once, Eunuch Wei deliberately let him see the side of the special torture tool in order to give him a bad start.

The naked beauty was lying on the bench, covered in bruises and bloodstains, and there were three welts piercing the skin on her back, trembling uncontrollably.The beauty had all her teeth pulled out, her groans were mixed with blood, she was so angry that she couldn't speak.

He couldn't imagine what would happen to Shu Shen who encountered these things.

He was still young at that time, but such a gloomy picture was already engraved in his bone marrow.

As time went by, he didn't want to recall it.

But as long as he thinks that such a scene will be related to Shu Shen, he can't help but itch his teeth with hatred, even though this person is actually standing in front of him in good condition.

Sensing that Xiao Qi's mood was wrong, Jing Liangtu didn't know how to comfort him for a while.

He could only half-squat in front of him, stretch out his hand to grab his tight palm, and smooth out his palm gently, using this simplest movement to comfort him silently.

"In that case, I promise you that I will survive this disaster unscathed."

Xiao Qi stared at him blankly, feeling warm in his heart.

He said helplessly, "Why are you talking to me like coaxing a child?"

Jing Liangtu laughed and said, "You are a few years younger than me, why aren't you a child?"

His eyes were as bright as stars, Xiao Qi's heart moved slightly, and he couldn't help but clenched his hand tightly.

"No matter what, I will never let you face it alone."
